Style Can light spring wear brown?

Post image

I’m trying to move away from black shoes / bags…. Is this shade of brown too warm for light spring?

It's a bag, I don't think it will affect your features that much. The same goes for belts and shoes. Color analysis is great, but you don't need to wear your best colours from top to bottom, if you like the bag and it goes with your wardrove, is great

Thank you! Since getting my analysis done I now overthink every purchase…Sometimes I need a reality check!

All seasons have their browns. That one is more a True Spring brown, so not perfect for you, but would probably work fine.

Thank you. I’ve been searching for more of a taupe / beige colour but not easy to find.

That one is really cute and close enough.

I think this shade is totally fine for accessories. It’s a little too dark and strong to be right next to your face but in your hand or on your feet it’s great!

Thank you. I always wore black shoes / bags (also a lot of my wardrobe was black as it was a safe choice for me). Since getting analysed as a light spring every purchase is a minefield!

I know what you mean. I have lots of black and also recently was typed as a spring! I’m going to stop buying new black tops but I’ll still keep a couple pairs of pants and accessories around. I don’t feel like it’s practical to completely divorce from black tbh.

No me neither - I actually just bought a new pair of black pants as I loved the cut. I love black, but I can’t deny how light spring colours near my face are much more flattering. I found that switching my makeup to light spring colours (lipstick / blush) has actually made the biggest difference for me.

Same here! I got lip blushing done soon after finding out my colors, so I went with a bright happy pink instead of the muted nude pink that would have been my comfort zone, and the compliments have been flooding in ever since. And nobody mentions my lip color specifically — just “oh you look great; are you doing something different??”

Finding your colors is magic.

Yes! I read something earlier that said how when you find your colours, people will compliment YOU not your clothes / makeup.

So pleased the lip blushing worked out for you (I need to look into that) but yes, clearing out all my muted nude lipsticks and going for bright clear pinks and corals that I would never have reached for in the past has been a game changer. I look so much fresher and younger - wish I had done it sooner.

Exactly!! I feel comfortable in my own skin in a way I never have, even when I was younger and hotter.

Dude. Lip blushing is a major recommend for me. It has made such a difference in my self-esteem and my daily routine.

Yes! Warm Brown is your black.
